Few global superstars are as grounded as André Rieu. And in interviews the Maestro attributes that frequently to his hometown of Maastricht which is not only the place he was born and raised but also a home for him and his family. While other international artists play their biggest shows far away from home André has started the tradition to invite the whole world to Maastricht to enjoy his spectacular summer concerts. André Rieu is in love with Maastricht and Maastricht is in love with André Rieu. Neither would be the same without the other.
On his album In Love With Maastricht – A Tribute To My Hometown, André Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra celebrate their special bond with the city with a selection of both global classics and local favourites ranging from ‘Nessun Dorma’ and ‘Ode to Joy’ to the ‘Maastricht Anthem’ and ‘Maastricht, City of Jolly Singers’ making this a must-have for fans and music-lovers.
